Implantation bleeding is the term for when a fertilized egg implants itself into your uterus, just before you become officially impregnated (pregnant). Some women experience a little spotting when the egg implants; others don't.
Two condoms are actually worse, as they are not designed to be doubled up and can cause friction and tear, or slip off/out. If you want to be super-safe, you can try using a condom and the withdrawal method as a combination. You can read more about that here: http://www.plannedparenthood.org/health-topics/birth-control/withdrawal-pull-out-method-4218.htm, or also look at the FAM (fertility awareness method, which basically means you have sex when you think you are least fertile).
